Wooooow, finally the end of that crazy "Queen" artwork! It took me a lot of time since the angle is kinda technical, but I finally made it! Thanks to Aubred and Sheist for their support, that's how I been able to create such a nice art!... Yeah, I guess I can say that!

And do not forget that "Queen" artwork's the official cover of Shade Sheist first new single featuring Latoiya Williams on the hook and Sovan on the beat. And the single name is... "Queen", of course! Get ready for Summer 2011, Shade Sheist's back!

Sketch of Shade Sheist, still got a few corrections/adds to do but no big deal. Sheist was really happy when he saw the sketch, it's encouraging: "I am in awe when I see this sketch! Your ability to draw me in a position I never was in is nothing short of remarkable!"

Thanks man, the final result's gonna be ill!

And here's another video clip of Shade Sheist: "Money Owners" featuring super producer Timbaland!

"Wow! This is nothing short of AMAZING! Damn, I am very happy with this reveal... [...] Looking forward to launching this great work really soon!"

Words of Shade Sheist himself about this new art! It's so good to read that since it took me a lot of time and efforts to draw that background!... It was a nice experience as well because it pushed me to improve myself (I already told you I wasn't really used to draw settings and all that).

I already did the first step for that "Queen" artwork. I just have to draw and put Shade Sheist on the pic. Stay tuned!

"In The Making": artwork for Shade Sheist (2) + "Bad Enough" f/ Young Noble, Redzz & TQ (Video Clip)

I already wrote an article about the fact I was drawing for Westcoast rapper Shade Sheist (check "In The Making": artwork for Shade Sheist (1)). Well, here's the final lineart of the setting:

It was a hell of a work, but it's always a pleasure to rise on a challenge. That's how I progress, it's as simple as that. I'm not especially used to draw settings, but I'm kinda satisfied of that one.

Sheist just said "This is incredible work!", so I think I'm doing good lol!

What's next? Colors and shadows of course, let's go!
